This port was retired at version 0.3.8 because wpa_supplicant is part of FreeBSD base. However, the last few releases have had a period of only a few months, so the base is always going to be behind. DragonFly is also affected, so I'm bringing the port back at the latest version. It features the same patches as FreeBSD including the conversion to use libutil's pidfile routines. There are some additional patches for DragonFly support and to fix some bugs from the 9 Oct 2014 release. The WPA Supplicant build system has been converted to ports options, and there are dozens of them. I've set the defaults to match the configuration in base and verified that it builds with all options selected at once.

wpa_supplicant is a client (supplicant) with support for WPA and WPA2
|
|
(IEEE 802.11i / RSN). It is suitable for both desktop/laptop computers and
|
|
embedded systems. Supplicant is the IEEE 802.1X/WPA component that is used
|
|
in the client stations. It implements key negotiation with a WPA
|
|
Authenticator and it controls the roaming and IEEE 802.11 authentication/
|
|
association of the wlan driver.
|
|
|
|
wpa_supplicant is designed to be a "daemon" program that runs in the
|
|
background and acts as the backend component controlling the wireless
|
|
connection. wpa_supplicant supports separate frontend programs and a
|
|
text-based frontend (wpa_cli) and a GUI (wpa_gui) are included with
|
|
wpa_supplicant.
